CARERS WEEK 2021 – Helping to Raise Awareness

With carers week just around the corner it is important to us here at Elite Screening Australia to Raise awareness of this great cause.

In Australia there are more than 2.65 million carers looking after the elderly and disabled people of our society. These individuals work tirelessly to provide the best care they can and are often underappreciated with long stress full hours and hard days.

One day or one week is nowhere near enough time to give credit to all those out there every day helping those vulnerable people in our society. We heavily rely on organizations like NDIS, Blue Care, Anglicare and so many more to help our own family members that we may not be able to provide full support to ourselves. Not to mention the many family members who have taken unpaid carers leave to look after family members suffering from any number of aliments such as terminal illnesses, mental illnesses, and chronic pain syndromes.

If you’re wanting to provide your support to the carers of Australia or hear some of their stories, please head to the below websites.
